"Joss Whedon is my master now."
I saw an Artline ad in the paper on the weekend. It displayed pens with the quote "...also available in less aggressive colours".

Most of the editing/marking I do (either manually or on the computer) is in red as it's contrasting but I don't do crosses/ticks either. I use a dot/asterisk and comments so the student has a direction for development and/or encouragement to continue doing well. Then again, I don't do much so I can take the time to do it that way.

*sigh* had a wedding on Sunday. stinking hot at the botanical gardens. it was lovely but trust my sister to want to get married in the jungle in the middle of December.

Top Ten Signs That You Are An Internet Geek

10. When filling out your driver's license application you give your IP address.

9. You no longer ask prospective dates what their sign is, instead your line is "Hi, what's your URL?"

8. Instead of calling you to dinner, your spouse sends email.

7. You're amazed to find out spam is a food.

6. You "ping" people to see if they're awake, "finger" them to find out how they are, and "AYT" them to make sure they're listening to you.

5. You search the Net endlessly hoping to win every silly free T-shirt contest.

4. You introduce your wife as "my lady@home.wife" and refer to your children as "client applications".

3. At social functions you introduce your husband as "my domain server".

2. After winning the office Melbourne Cup sweep you blurt out, "I feel so "colon-right parentheses!"

..And the number one sign you are an Internet Geek:

1. Two Words: "Pizza's Here!".

Random thought. I need to exercise a heck a of a lot more than I do currently :6pack:

Had the work party yestersay, down at Narra (I think it's Narra) park for a spit roast picnic. Lovely weather, great food, fine :beer1 and a top game of hit'n'run cricket. Lasted 20 minutes without getting out. On the downside, my body is now aching all over, and my arms are now' medium rare'. At least the sombrero kept the sun off my face.

Once again we find ourselves enmeshed in the Holiday Season, that very special time of year when we join with our loved ones in sharing centuries-old traditions such as trying to find a parking space at the mall. We traditionally do this in my family by driving around the parking lot until we see a shopper emerge from the mall, then we follow her, in very much the same spirit as the Three Wise Men, who 2,000 years ago followed a star, week after week, until it led them to a parking space.

I am still curious as to why our message board attracts the "Find your lesbian match" ad.

Don't blame me for that! I don't even think Canberra offers such pleasantries. Sydney probably does, but not Canberra
